It might not be a bad idea to give credit to the designer of the models that you use in your images. I don't think it's a major problem if you don't, but then I think the designers would appreciate it if they saw recognition of who designed the models you have used in your pics. As far as the speed of your images loading, that comes in the file sizes that they are not really what types they are. And that is your problem. The sizes of your graphics as WAY too big for their physical size. For example, on your first page you have one graphic and one background, the background is 164K and the graphic is 74K, they should not be that large. All you have to do is run them through a compressor and you can reduce the file size greatly. I did this to your's and the background shrunk down to 33K and the graphic down to 18K. These two will load ALOT faster than the ones you are using and there is no change in their quality. As a matter of fact I took all the graphics on the first two pages of your website and compressed them, your original graphics totaled 445K, and the ones I compressed total 90K, that's an 80% decrease in file size. This is one way you can speed up your loading time. I hope this helps. If you want the files that I compressed just send me an e-mail to autoloader@hotmail.com and I will gladly e-mail them to you.
